This is in response to that cop pointing a gun at Aaron Bushnell and yelling at him to get on the ground as he self immolates. Its insane, americans are insane fascists
my toddler son entered the room, unable to breathe and grasping at his throat. as I am a highly trained American cop, my fear pushes me to deploy a tactical response. my first general order is to gain control of the situation. to immediate effect of the afformentioned duty, I unholstered my weapon, pointed it at him, and yelled at him to get on the ground.
my brain has been certified by the shooting board as "Good, Actually" and I have been cleared to return to my status as training officer.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE SIR THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE SIR THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE SIR
If the toddler was following the rules they would never have choked on anything. Clearly they were no angel.
You literally just said your toddler son was rushing you. You didn’t have a choice
HOW DOES SHOOTING A MAN WHOS LITERALLY SET HIMSELF ON FIRE MAKE THE FIRE LESS DANGEROUS YOU STUPID ASSHOLE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
This is legitimately driving me mad, Im so pissed off at the insanely fascist mind of the average liberal.
That's the kind of world they want to live in, but they don't want the citizens to have the guns.
Cop who panics during public speaking and points gun at the audience
GET ON THE FUCKING GROUND RIGHT NOW! DON'T MOVE! HANDS ON YOUR HEAD!
Its like the bit in Disco Elysium if you fail the Authority check and you start crying and screaming at nothing. Except its real life and these guys constantly kill people because of it.
I just downloaded the game but haven't been able to play it yet.
Everything I hear about it, including this, is great. Haha
Its reputation is well earned. Its easily one of the best video games Ive ever played.
They have a stronger fear reaction than empathy reaction, and their response to fear is deadly force.
Haven't seen it either, but...
No investigation, no right to speak.
No, fuck it.
Ukraine/Israel flag emoji, no right to speak.
Honestly, the latter is covered by the former.
Absolutely without souls.
Demons, husks, vampires, draugr, jotunn, djinn, zombies, ghouls. None of them compare to liberals.
Hey now. Djinn are cool. Don't bring them into this.
"I havent seen it either but (horrificly cruel nonsense)"
Every day liberals enlighten me more on why the Soviet Union used the term "Citizen" rather than "Comrade" as an insult.
It wasn't an insult, but a default official address term for non-communists.
So they agree, a cops instinct is to shoot first and not help
I did see the video and the pig in question keeps pointing his gun at Bushnell after he has collapsed on the ground and others are putting him out with fire extinguishers.
Perhaps he's wondering why you'd shoot a man who set himself on fire!? [BANE]
Good post
So it's like... there's kind of something here? That probably was the first time that cop had ever seen someone on fire, and when we find ourselves face to face with completely new experiences, we tend to fall back on instinct or training. And the training that the cop fell back on was drawing his weapon and threatening the man who was on fire, so that tells you a little bit about cops (that we knew already). I also wouldn't be surprised if that cop needs therapy after seeing that shit up close and in person.
maybe he thought firearms are for fighting fire
Hopefully he needs therapy and hopefully that therapy will lead him to finding a new line of work
Need shinigami eyes but it shows if people used the flag on their social media
Gregory's second comment is correct. When you panic, you default to your training. It's the whole reason you train in the first place. This dude short-circuited and ended up on the default "draw gun and yell get on the ground" loop.
Thats the least problematic comment in the thread, yeah, but thats still horrific. That American police are trained to default to pulling out their weapon is an insane fucking thing
Oh, sorry, I meant that it was the only correct comment. The rest are insane and not worth engaging with. That's my fault for poor wording.
Very based Punished alex
I just lost my like 6th account because of a violation of the tos on violent speech and these liberal dogs are going to drive me to lose my 7th.
Depraved Zionist cretin revels in human suffering, what a surprise!
